Donna Trimm is a Columbia University-trained Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She has over a decade of clinical experience helping people navigate terminal illness, death, and grief through individual and group therapy. As a member of the International Expressive Arts Therapy Association, she utilizes writing therapy and other expressive arts therapies to help clients identify root causes of depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues. She applies a holistic, strengths-based, psychoeducational approach to help equip clients with the latest evidence-supported therapies, resulting in a deeper grasp of their own resilience and capacity. She focuses on holistic healing through integrative, whole body health care, which includes nutrition, exercise, supplements, and Mindfulness Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Donna also facilitates training workshops for allied professionals hoping to move away from traditional, Western approaches to mental health care which focus heavily on psychotropic pharmaceuticals.

What areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I learned to listen and practice empathy by being raised in an environment where those qualities were hard to find. I often say that I became a Social Worker at age 12 when, after fighting back bullies on my own behalf, I walked over to where a bully was tormenting a peer and told him to “knock it off.” After working hard to find my own voice, I came to understand that I had a role to play in helping others find theirs. Sometimes that means figuring out what that voice would have sounded like when it was still silent. I’m honored to companion people back to the most pivotal periods of their lives to give sound to silent scenes that are making themselves heard decades later through undesirable traits and behaviors, or maybe depression and anxiety. My later lived experience in NYC, The International House, East Harlem, Washington Heights, and the south side of Chicago lend cultural sensitivity, insight, and commitment.
